| 0:59.7 | Hey, everybody. Welcome to the RotoWire Fantasy Baseball podcast. |
| 1:01.4 | Jeff Erickson here with Fred Zinke. |
| 1:02.1 | Happy Tuesday. |
| 1:03.5 | Happy DeGrom Day. |
| 1:04.9 | Happy Mondesi day. |
| 1:07.2 | It's almost happy Alec Manoa Day, too. We'll get into that in a second here. |
| 1:08.7 | Fred, what's going on? |
| 1:09.3 | How you doing? |
| 1:10.2 | Yeah, a lot of happy things going on here. People getting their DeGrom back, who they so desperately need. I think, I think Mondi might be the big get today. Manoa will be, and it will dominate fantasy headlines for a few days. But I mean, for those who drafted Mondesie, a lot of them probably planned their steals around him and have been, you know, probably just dying to get him back. |
| 1:11.7 | So if they can get him back now, I mean... who drafted modesty a lot of them probably planned their steals around him and have been |
| 1:28.2 | you know probably just dying to get him back so if they can get him back now i mean he could steal |
| 1:33.1 | 40 bases the rest of the way if things broke really well he could steal 10 a month right yeah he could |
| 1:39.9 | he could i think it's unlikely to expect that money that many but. But then again, because, you know, little things happen from time of time. Yeah. Oh, he could steal 10. Like the way he's coming off a long-term injury, you know, he could have other injuries and you could get 10. He will decide a lot. There will probably be a lot of leagues that he decides. Like 40 might be a little high., but I mean, I think a projection for Monashy like before any of these injuries was probably 50 something steals, which is about nine a month. So I mean, four times nine, there's 30. He could get probably anything from like mid 30s for steals to like I said, like another injury and you get 10 from them. So that's a huge gap up the standings for probably a lot of the teams to have them because as I said, I was telling you before we started recording that I have two modesty teams, one's first in steals and one's third. So that's not how I planned it. You know, where I was really hoping he would just surge me up eight or nine points here in the next six weeks or something like that. |
| 2:36.4 | But that's not going to happen for me, but I bet it will happen for a lot of teams. Yeah, I bet it will. And the thing is, he's batting seventh today. He's not batting leadoff, not betting second. I can't really blame them. I mean, the Royals, I mean, you look at their lineup. |
